Abstract

En este artículo se realiza un análisis de las transformaciones recientes en la producción material y en la acumulación de capital en la producción agraria argentina. Con base en una variedad de fuentes estadísticas, se muestra que el cultivo genéticamente modificado ha hegemonizado esta producción permitiendo la aparición de nuevas economías de escala. Luego, se presentan algunos estudios de casos representativos que muestran que esta transformación no alcanzó para superar las barreras de entrada que históricamente encontraron los capitales más concentrados de la economía nacional en este sector. Esta última conclusión desafía a varias concepciones dominantes en la literatura especializada. This paper presents an analysis of the recent transformations in material production and capital accumulation in the agrarian production in Argentina. Based on a varied statistical sources it shows that the GM crop production has hegemonized that production allowing the emergence of new economies of scale. Then, through some representative case studies it shows that those transformations were not enough to overcome the barriers to entry that the most concentrated capitals of the national economy historically faced in this sector. This last conclusion challenges several dominant ideas in the specialized literature.
